What reviewers are saying

"monster fighters is one of those themes that uh i happen to think is one of the best lego themes that they've ever made um i mean feel free to disagree with me but monster writers is definitely definitely in my top three"

JANG's LEGO Reviews

Ecosystem

Monster Fighters Vampire Castle — Reviewer recalls that the Vampire Castle may have featured all the moonstones from different Monster Fighters sets, suggesting it was a centerpiece set, but is uncertain and plans to revisit

Hidden Side theme — While Hidden Side is cool, reviewer would prefer a full return of Monster Fighters theme rather than the spiritual successor
